The Art of Home-Making Mondays ~ Please Join Us ~ Link Up 124

“And the yellow sunflower by the brook, in autumn beauty stood.”

~ William Cullen Bryant

There are so many wonderful features in the making of a home. This is a place where I would love for you to share your love for anything home-related. Homemaking, homeschooling and homesteading are all a part of the lovely art of home-making!

~~Please link up posts in the spirit of Titus 2 and Proverbs 31 (such as recipes, godly encouragement, DIY's, frugal living, child-raising, medicine making, preparedness, gardening, home decoration, school lessons, sewing, crafts, etc). ~~ You are welcome to share as many posts as you like!

~ Today we are sharing a "post from the past" ~

{This is where I feature a post from the link up archives that I have tried and appreciated.}

Sometimes "real recipes" can be a bit restricting when trying to cook based off of what you have. Connie shared her quick way to make pot pie and we made a nice meal from it! We took the concept of a normal pot pie filling. However, instead of including a bag of frozen peas, I added my chopped up bag of frozen, cubed zucchini (read here and you will understand). We dolloped the top with homemade gluten-free biscuit dough and so forth. Visit here for the practical recipe inspirations as well as encouragement from an older, believing woman who has been through a lot in her life and lived to see many blessings!

On to this week! For the sake of our readers, please link up appropriate and wholesome home-related articles and leave out any giveaways, advertisements, etc. Thank you for understanding! I can't wait to see what you all have to share!

Please copy the button below (html code is in box below it) and share on your blog post or side-bar so others can come and join in the link up as well!

Good Monday morning to you and thank you for hosting this favorite homemaking party. Chicken Pot Pie sounds delicious. And I can't wait to make soups as soon as the temperatures subside. It's been a long, hot summer. Happy Autumn!

Welcome! A little introduction… I am an old-fashioned, Bible-believing, wife to my "one and only" for 20 years, homeschooling mother, who embraces her role as "keeper at home". We live on a 25-acre prairie farm.For fun… my three main earthly weaknesses (in no particular order) are coffee, dark chocolate and hardcover books. What about you? My hope is that this blog will inspire you in the arts of homemaking, homeschooling and homesteading. Visit here for 10 random facts about me... Have a beautiful day! ~ JES

"The woman who makes a sweet, beautiful home, filling it with love and prayer and purity, is doing something better than anything else her hands could find to do beneath the skies. A true mother is one of the holiest secrets of home happiness. God sends many beautiful things to this world, many noble gifts; but no blessing is richer than that which He bestows in a mother who has learned love's lessons well, and has realized something of the meaning of her sacred calling."

"She (the godly wife and mother) is a mighty warrior queen who fights righteous battles at her husband's side and reigns with him over the home and domain God has given them as they work together for Christ's eternal Kingdom and glory."

"There is nothing in the daily routine of the family life that is unimportant. Indeed, it is ofttimes the things we think of as without influence that will be found to have made the deepest impression on the tender lives of the household." ~ Excerpt from The Family

“And there are my children! My darling, precious children! For their sakes I am continually constrained to seek after an amended, a sanctified life; what I want them to become I must become myself."
